These colors come from CSS where they are described as beeing defined in
HTML4.0...

from http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/syndata.html#value-def-color

<<
The list of keyword color names is: aqua, black, blue, fuchsia, gray,
green, lime, maroon, navy, olive, purple, red, silver, teal, white, and
yellow. These 16 colors are defined in HTML 4.0 ([HTML40]). In addition
to these color keywords, users may specify keywords that
correspond to the colors used by certain objects in the user's
environment. Please consult the section on system colors for more
information. 

  BODY {color: black; background: white }
  H1 { color: maroon }
  H2 { color: olive }
